COMING SOON: Unleash the entrepreneurial potential already in your community to build a pipeline of new businesses. Sheds incubate tiny businesses on any empty lot. Divided buildings nurture multiple small businesses together. Pop-ups give you the starting point to make it a success. Choose one or all three tools to reshape your community's downtown.
